It was another sleepless night for Fili. His mind was filled with 'What If' thoughts that always ended with the death of his brother. He knew that Kili was strong, but he was still his reckless, little brother; He couldn't help but worry.

"Up so early?" Thorin said as he saw Fili packing the camp up.

"Couldn't sleep." Fili corrected and continued shoving things into a bag and pouring water onto the fire. Thorin walked around and woke the rest. As soon as camp was completely packed they were off. There was nothing but treeless lands, with the occasional patch of big rocks, for as far as they could see. Traveling went smoothly the first half of the day.

"Thorin!" Fili called from ahead. Thorin ran to meet Fili, who was crouched down by a big rock. "This is Kili's!" He said handing Thorin an arrow, which was indeed Kili's.

"They can't be too far ahead." Thorin said, searching the plains for any sign of the enemy. "We must move quickly now." Thorin informed the others. Fili was more motivated than ever now. He knew the Wargs couldn't be too far ahead of them and just the thought of being reunited with his brother brought an unbearable emotion of happiness.

"Is this really necessary?" Kili asked as he bobbed up and down from the motion of the Warg, whose back he held onto, walking. He had no feeling that his life was in danger. If it weren't for the bounds that were so strongly around his hands and feet, he would of left in the night.

"Quiet down!" A orc who stood next to the Warg yelled.

"I was just asking." Kili said quietly to himself as he rolled his eyes.

"My Lord, we are not far from the Misty Mountains." Kili heard a orc who was ahead inform. "Yes, of course. He has said nothing of importance, My Lord." Kili then heard the orc answer, however, he had not heard any other voices.

It quickly became dark once again and the Wargs had stopped for the night. It was dangerous for anyone or any creature to move at night. Kili laid on the ground in the shadow of a big rock. The only light was that of the fire the orcs had made. Soon the sound of Warg and orc snores filled the air. Kili slowly made his way to the orc, who was suppose to be guarding him but had fallen asleep. When Kili reached him, he quietly knocked his sword to the ground and began cutting his ropes.

"What are we going to do with him?" Kili flinched as he heard a orc talk. He slowly turned to look in the direction the voice had come. The White Warg and an orc stood, facing the opposite direction as Kili, talking.

"We take him to our hide out and wait for the rest of them to come. Then we kill him." The White Warg growled. Kili quietly continued cutting the ropes. Once they were completely off he quietly made his way, still crouched on the ground, to the darkness. Paying attention only to the White Warg and the orc, Kili ran into some weapons that were propped up against the rock wall, sending them to the ground with a great commotion.

"You think you can so easily escape!" The White Warg growled as he reached Kili in one leap. He put his paw against Kili's chest and waved his teeth in his face. Kili froze, trying to find the right words. None could come to mind. He had indeed thought that he could easily escape. "Tie him back up!" The White Warg demanded as he pushed himself away from Kili. The guard, who was sleeping on the job, had awaken and was now quickly tying Kili back up. Kili scanned the area for his bow and arrows. He spotted them in a pile of other weapons that, he assumed, belonged to the orcs.

"If only i could get to them." Kili thought to himself. He was once again in bounds and laying on the ground where he had began. Daylight was not far and the Wargs and orcs were waking up. It wasn't long until they were on the move again.

"They must of been here within the last hour." Balin said as he examined the freshly-extinguished fire. Fili grew more and more anxious with each passing second. He looked around for any sign that Kili must of left, but there was none.

"If we pick up the pace we can catch up to them." Thorin motivated the others.

"Lets move on!" Fili shouted so that everyone in the group could clearly hear. The company began moving again, this time faster, in hope of catching up with the Wargs.

Sorry this was another short one!
